SRU request:
Impact: Dell device is lacking volume up/down hotkeys which require 307C-4F66- bf0E-48AEAEB26C C8.
a WMI driver to handle the WMI hotkey events with the GUID
02314822-
Fix: Update dell WMI driver to support GUID 02314822- 307C-4F66- bf0E-48AEAEB26C C8.
and handle firmware bug in _WED method return value.
Testcase: With the driver, hotkeys work correctly. Without the driver,
hotkeys don't work.
